The lower part of the chamber A is provided with openings 9 g in its sides, as .well as with openings it in its bottom b, connecting with the inlet-pipeO, and with openings h h, connecting with the outlet-pipe D. In the upper part of the chamber the usual mechanism, M, for indicating the number of the revolutions of the shaft E is arranged. The shaft E car-- ries the usual Wing=wheel, F, for giving motion to this shaft E. The openings 9 and t are made of such a size that the areas of all the openings 9 g together are less than the area of inlet-pipe C, while the areas of the openings 9,
